A visibly expanded mind

Energy travels

Depression is a waste of time

Turning people away

Happiness in fits and starts

A lost sense of who I am

Go and live in another state

  for a couple of months

To meet new people and to get a fresh look

Take advantage of opportunities

Don’t shy away from them

A new perspective, a change of space

A chance to remember, to get a taste

  of what is forgotten, of something new

To remember what it’s like to feel happy

and then to retain that feeling for life

To savor and to treasure 

to keep it, to feel it

whenever and as often as I’d like.
